Neville Kneville

I actually think Tony was happier when we were shit. After many a depressing defeat we would meet up with him because it never got him down. He was always very positive and we were only ever a few academy players away from being a top side. He was very passionate about the youth players coming through, rather than big money signings

Fair enough. If he was happier when we were shit, then he probably had a very happy life!! ;-)

Either way, his passion for city certainly gave him an interesting life
 
WHAT?!?!

Wow, this is terrible, terrible news! :(

Truly gutted.

Prior to BlueMoon, I knew him on the ManCityFans forum As Ted Hughes.

Back then he was one of the first posters to interact with me within threads whilst I was a newcomer / outsider to our online community and I was feeling my way around who made me feel more like a genuine Blue, outside of my mate who is a life long City fan and one of the major reasons I am a fan today.

When he left ManCityFans in 2015 I was quite sad about it.

His posts were highly enjoyable, and thought provoking reads, where I truly appreciated his willingness to go in depth with analysis and engage in dialogue.

When I expressed my sadness when he left in a thread about this another poster on ManCityFans was kind of enough to let me know that he'd moved to BM as Neville Neville.

That in fact led me to seek his posts out and spend time here on BlueMoon when I wasn't at the same level prior to his decision to post here.

So, it was because of his move here that I am even perhaps on BM as much as I am today, and have been able to interact with even more of our fans.

That's how much I respected the man.

A 100% true Blue I will never forget for his intelligent posts, but maybe more so for how he helped me feel welcomed as part of Blues fan online community.

I hope his loved ones are able to hear how much he is valued and will be missed.

Late to the thread, but am genuinely upset to read this truly wretched news, especially given his relatively young age. NK was a real asset to this community and one of a fairly small number of posters whose contributions I particularly look out for.

His views were strongly held and sometimes trenchantly expressed, but, even when you disagreed with him, it was always obvious that they were based on a deep knowledge of MCFC and football in general. For that reason, he could really make you think and his passion for the Blue cause shone through like a beacon.

RIP, mate. And sincere condolences to your friends and family.

you are absolutely spot on with everything you say, I am going to miss him and the great one to one chats we had
 
A very good poster. The forum will be worse off without him, as I’m sure he will be a huge miss with his loved ones.

Rest in peace.
 
RIP Neville kneville, as has been said he was one of the top posters on here for years, one whose posts you would always take a little bit more interest in, and the forum will be worse off for not having him around, such sad news.
Condolences to his family and friends. RIP
